Kahn's design (1961) for Carborundum's Niagara Falls plant, with its emphasis on light to counteract dust from the factory floor, was utilized at several of the company's warehouses and offices including Chicago, Ill. and Mountain Valley, Calif. His 1961-1962 plans for a fourth facility in Atlanta, Ga. were never realized.
